uhm, check your history again. in vietnam we won all the battles, and in fact the north leaders admitted that they were a few days away from surrendering. we ended up with a political settlement rather than a military victory. we had signed a peace treaty with the north, hence the war was over, and we were in the process of leaving when the north attacked the south, which sped up our timetable.

as for iraq, we mopped the floor with the iraqi military twice, and accomplished the goals we set. and the we pulled our military out according to the timetable put forth by the bush adminstration.

The Bankers and Hidden family interests were behind WW2.

Now that they have shipped most of the west's know how to China, China will be the new savior and world power for them attach to.

America and her Western Allies will be the new Hitler to conquer driven by an Asian perspective, where America, like Germany kept taking over country after country militarily and must be stopped for the good of mankind, so they will preach.

Some interesting finds on the internet when looking for some key phrases from that article in order to see other places that have referenced it.

Some would say it is propaganda when the sites you come up with are Pakistani, Iranian, Russian, Chinese etc, others would say it is a warning and to ignore at your own peril.

But those are the times when war becomes a convenient way to unite the people and smash dissent.

But it is our manifest destiny to dominate the planet! Nothing can stop us, and all will fall before us!

And yes I'm being sarcastic. We need to pick up our ball and go home and worry about our problems here.

China sells to other countries too. At cheap prices, without China our prices would sky rocket.

If we cut China, they dump our dept: dollar drops, prices go up. We will end up with Hyperinflation

We will def. suffer a LOT more than China. We are too entitled & privileged
